1. Sixth Annual Trading Hands Kids Sale

    Published: February 21, 2012

    The first sign of spring in our area isn’t tulips, robins or the start of baseball. It’s that favorite seasonal tradition: The Trading Hands Kids Sale, scheduled at 9am March 22-24 at the Ozark Empire Fairgrounds E-Plex in Springfield MO.

    There is no admission charge for the sale and there is ample free parking. Parents and grandparents know how difficult it is to find quality children’s items at reasonable prices. Seasonal children’s consignment sales like Trading Hands Kids Sale, are a growing trend throughout the country.

    With 37,500 square feet of shopping space, shoppers will find new and gently used infant-teen clothing, shoes, toys, books, baby equipment, and much more from more than 300 families. Trading Hands Kids Sale sells only gently used items at a fraction of the retail cost, without sacrificing quality.

    This is not just any consignment sale because quality is the key for the Trading Hands sale. Every item is closely inspected before being approved for sale. This guarantees the best shopping experience.

    Anyone who has gently used children’s items may be a consignor - and there are perks besides earning money. Consignors set their own prices, shop before the public, and receive up to 75 percent of their total sales. Those interested in consigning items should visit the sale web site, www.tradinghands.net, to register and print their tags for their items.
